Re: Lane Kiffin to USC

What contract did USC breach? The one between the asst coach and the Titans? How can they breach a contract they didn't agree to? If you agree to a contract with your employer, that's your problem. There's no way I can breach your contract. I might say it was a stupid contract and one I'd never sign.

That's an element of the case the plaintiff would need to prove obviously. For now, we (or at least a court deciding whether to throw the suit out) have to assume USC knew, though, based on the article.

ETA what the article says on this point: "The lawsuit also notes Southern California and Kiffin, through Pola, knew about his contract requirements."
